Komets

This is Quad City's first goal of the second period by Bobby Preece

Leo Thomas scores the first goal of the game.

OK, here's a question for you: Who's the toughest light heavyweight fighter the Komets have had -- Jon Mirasty, Robbie Laird, Andy Bezeau, Dale Baldwin, Con Madigan, Steve Salvucci, Brad MacMillan or Kevin Kaminski? That's off the top of my head, so I'm sure I've missed somebody. If you want to add someone in go ahead. I'm judging light heavyweight by 5-10 and under.

You can see them here. They've got most of the goals.

...for the last half of the third period, at the end where the Bloomington goaltender is, and this punk says, ``3:00 to go until a shutout,'' to his girlfriend, acting like he actually knows what he's talking about. I look up at him and say, ``You just jinxed it.''

``Shut up, old man, I don't want to hear it.''

So what happens? About a minute and a half later Bloomington scores, of course. I look up at the guy and say, ``That one's on you.''

Again, ``I don't want to hear it old man.''
